Using a scrapbook as design inspiration for graphic artists

A ‘junk’ is a small piece of something. A scrapbook is an album or digital content in which a collection of graphic design samples is published or saved as reference material. It is a book with empty pages in which the graphic artist pastes or pastes these small samples for future use. Items that can be found in a scrapbook include pictures, drawings, letter styles, magazine cutouts, posters, packages, labels, cartoons, etc. Scrapbooking is the best way to preserve important information that would be relevant to the artist while fulfilling his duties. It is also an important aid in preserving your personal and family history.

The scrapbook differs from a portfolio in that a portfolio is a collection of only the artist’s works, while a scrapbook contains both the artist’s works and, more importantly, the works of others. Part of the importance includes:

1. Serves as reference material: Scrapbook helps the graphic artist to make a quick reference to his own creative works. This inference helps you produce similar jobs with less stress. You can also use it to reference your capabilities to new clients who want to see photographic evidence of the artist’s creative prowess.

2. It serves as a warehouse for the preservation of graphic design works. It serves as a place where the graphic artist stores all his creative works and those of other experienced graphic artists who are sources of inspiration for the graphic designer.

3. Help the graphic artist in the execution of works. It serves as a memory aid when executing graphic design projects. Help the artist to choose harmonious colors and shapes for his productions.

4. Serves as an inspiration tool for the graphic designer: The works of other artists in the scrapbook serve as chains of motivation and inspiration for the graphic artist. They give the artist a feeling of enthusiasm that boosts his morale and challenges him to create better works full of new and creative ideas.

5. Serves as a guide for the graphic artist. The works in it serve as a tutor for the graphic artist on effective forms and procedures to produce specific works in the field of graphic design. Define the parameters for the execution of graphic design works such as posters, dust jackets, banners, billboards, signs, greeting cards, etc.
